Abstract
A comprehensive review of the literature on chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL) patients and recommendations
regarding the evaluation and treatment of these patients was conducted. The overall prevalence of CLL and
COVID-19 concurrence was found to be 0.6% (95%CI: 0.5% to 0.7%). Diagnostic interaction between CLL and
COVID-19 remains a major challenge. Also, CLL patients have a lower rate of anti-SARS-CoV-2 IgG development.
Evidences show the unacceptable therapeutic outcome in these patients. Although the CLL-COVID-19 occurrence
is associated with adverse clinical consequences, no general and standard agreement has yet been presented for
the management and treatment of this disease
